Abel Aoun is a Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience building full‑stack and scientific software, currently working on next‑generation meteorological satellite tooling in Germany. He blends backend, DevOps and Python expertise—especially for geosciences—having led development of the open-source icclim climate indices library at CERFACS and contributed tests and fixes to flagship projects like NumPy. His background spans Java/TypeScript/Kotlin full‑stack work, CI/CD automation, and domain‑specific formats like netCDF and Zarr, making him comfortable from embedded Android to cloud workflows. As a contractor he has repeatedly owned tooling for complex scientific pipelines (skinnycat for MTG products) and implemented production-ready infrastructure such as Keycloak SSO and Stripe integrations. Abel is learning Rust and German, signaling a pragmatic drive to broaden systems and language-level skills. Colleagues value him for autonomous delivery across research collaborations and for turning scientific requirements into robust, tested code.
